After saying that, Liu Ruyan ignored the surprised expressions of the tourists around him, jumped into the corridor, and took out a lighter to light up the road ahead. M.
Behind Liu Ruyan, many tourists filed in, including Zhou Sheng and Liuli.
Of course, there are also some timid tourists who choose to stay near the bus.
The driver simply opened the door and asked them to go back to the car and wait. Then, the driver followed the large group into the corridor.
Someone shouted from behind: "Girl, I have a flashlight here, can you take it and use it?"
The light of the flashlight is obviously more useful than the lighter in Liu Ruyan's hand.
Liu Ruyan replied: "I'm not doing it for lighting."
One student immediately reacted: "It's to test the oxygen content, right? When I read novels, I often saw scenes about the lack of oxygen in tombs!"
Judging from the excitement of this group of students, they obviously regarded this trip as an adventure.
Liu Ruyan and Zhou Sheng naturally did not ignore Bai Feifei's text message, and they also knew that this might be dangerous.
But looking at the appearance of this group of tourists, we know that it will be difficult to convince them all before there is no way to prove the dangers of the underground.
Therefore, Liu Ruyan took the initiative to take the lead precisely because she knew the danger.
At least, with her skill and insight, when faced with danger, she has a higher chance of survival than ordinary people.
The same goes for Zhou Sheng and Liuli who followed. Without them, this group of ordinary tourists and curious professors and students might not even know how they died.
At the moment, Zhou Sheng only hopes to scare these tourists back before they face real danger.
The corridor is about wide enough to accommodate one and a half people, and people line up in a line to slowly explore downwards.
At the beginning, everyone was extremely nervous, highly focused, and took every step carefully.
However, after walking for more than ten minutes, the tunnel was still bottomless, and there were no dangers around. Even the land under our feet was flat, without even a stumbling stone.
People's highly tense spirits gradually relaxed, and sporadic chatter even appeared in the corridor.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the lighter in Liu Ruyan's hand suddenly went out.
Previously, some tourists followed Liu Ruyan's example and lit lighters and matches. At this moment, these open flames were also blown out by the cold wind.
The light in the corridor instantly dimmed a lot.
Only the flashlight in the hand of a young girl was still shining on the road ahead.
But this sudden change seemed to frighten the young girl.
She screamed softly, shook her hand, and the flashlight rolled down the corridor.
The light of the flashlight circled the faces of the tourists as it rotated, and their expressions were colorful.
But when more people were illuminated by flashlights, what they saw were faces of fear.
It wasn't until the flashlight light source rolled further and further away that these expressions fell into darkness again.
At the same time, the sound of discussion sounded in the darkness.
"Don't panic, everyone, the wind means we are almost at the exit!"
"But the wind just now was like blowing from the underworld, how could it be so cold."
"Don't think too much, the temperature underground is already low..."
"Click." is the sound of pulling the lighter button.
After a brief incident, the lighters in people's hands were lit again, illuminating the corridor again.
After regaining the light, a lot of the tension in people's hearts was dissipated.
At this moment, Liu Ruyan shouted: "Shut up and be quiet! Listen to this sound."
Everyone held their breath and concentrated. The first thing they heard was the sound of rolling. It seemed that the flashlight that had just fallen had not rolled to the end of the corridor.
And since the flashlight was still rolling, it meant that their hope of reaching the exit was completely shattered.
Even with the flashlight scrolling for so long, they must have been walking for dozens of minutes.
Amidst the sound of the flashlight rolling, there was also a faint ticking sound.
Like water droplets falling and hitting the ground.
At first, the sound was very quiet and inconspicuous, so few people noticed it.
But as time went by, the sound of water drops seemed to be approaching the crowd, becoming louder and clearer.
until--
"Plop!" Something dripped on Zhou Sheng's head.
Zhou Sheng raised his hand and touched it, and then there was another snap. Before Zhou Sheng could take his hand off his head, the liquid dripped directly on the back of his hand.
Someone raised a weak firelight and looked in the direction of Zhou Sheng.
"Ah——" a scream sounded.
Of course, it was not Zhou Sheng who was screaming, but the tourists who saw Zhou Sheng's appearance.
I saw that Zhou Sheng's palms and backs were all blood red, and the liquid on his head was flowing down his forehead and past the sides of his nose. Of course, this unknown liquid was also dark red.
He now looked like his head was bleeding uncontrollably, leaving a mess on his face and hands.
Zhou Sheng leaned close to the dim light of one of the lighters, reached out and wiped the crimson liquid on his face, and said in a calm voice without any emotion: "Don't be afraid, I am a human being."
However, his hands were already stained with blood, and the touch on his face immediately made Zhou Sheng's entire face look ferocious.
That ray of fire formed an inverted V shape, cutting the bright side and dark side of Zhou Sheng's face, making the shadow part from bottom to top look particularly weird.
"Ahhhh! Ghost!" The man who was standing in front of Zhou Sheng burst into a shrill roar.
Then, he pushed Zhou Sheng away and ran outside without looking back.
"I, I want to go up too!" The young girl who dropped the flashlight also took a few steps back, turned around and walked out.
The people who were originally standing in front of and behind Zhou Sheng in the queue now moved away from him, leaving a vacuum between Zhou Sheng and Zhou Sheng.
But Zhou Sheng stood there, his limbs seemed to be stiff, motionless, and repeated: "Don't be afraid, I am a human being."
"Meow--"
As Zhou Sheng finished speaking, a cat meow that resembled a baby's cry echoed in the corridor.
The hands and feet of the tourists were already cold, and some people were already trembling in their breathing.
The silence made the trembling breathing sound particularly clear.
However, no one dared to approach Zhou Sheng, and no one dared to ask him what was going on.
"Gulu gulu, gulu gulu..."
Amidst the trembling breathing, the sound of something rolling became louder and louder.
"Plop." As if it hit something, the rolling sound stopped.
Immediately afterwards, there was another scream: "Ah——"
This time, the one who screamed was the young girl who was just about to walk back up.
She stammered: "Yes, it's my flashlight. It, it rolled back from above!"
The young girl froze in place at a loss and did not dare to pick up the flashlight. She was obviously frightened.
